Smart Working

Smart working is a work concept that is characterized by the use of technology and flexible approaches to enable employees to work more efficiently, productively, and in a balanced manner. Smart working is based on the idea that employees do not have to be physically present in the office during fixed hours to do their work optimally. Instead, it focuses on results and task completion, rather than physical presence.

Here are some key elements of smart working:

• Workplace flexibility: Employees can work remotely, whether from home, coffee shop, coworking space, or anywhere else where they can be effective. This reduces dependence on a physical workplace.

• Flexible schedules: Work schedules can be adapted to individual needs, allowing employees to better balance their work and personal lives. Working hours are not necessarily limited to a fixed range of 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.

• Technology: Smart working relies on the use of technologies such as online communications, collaboration tools, project management platforms, etc., to enable employees to work effectively remotely.

• Results-based performance evaluation: Employees are evaluated based on how much they contribute to business results rather than how much time they spend in the office.

• Encouraging autonomy: Employees have more responsibility and autonomy in managing their work. They are encouraged to organize their time and tasks in a way that maximizes their productivity.

• Reduced travel: Smart working reduces the need for long commutes to and from work, which can help reduce stress and associated costs.

Smart working has become particularly relevant in the context of digital transformation and the COVID-19 pandemic, which has forced many organizations to adopt remote working practices. It aims to improve the quality of life of employees while increasing productivity and overall business efficiency.
